Zimbabweans responded with incredulous scorn as the ZRP said “investigations underway” after a picture emerged of the self-proclaimed prophet and socialite Passion Java wearing a police officer’s hat.
The controversial Java, who has been campaigning for President Emmerson Mnangagwa, is shown in the image which has since gone viral wearing a female cop’s hat sitting in a vehicle with a woman officer standing next to the car.
According to the Police Act, anyone wearing police gear “without the authority of the commissioner will be guilty of an offence and liable to a fine not exceeding level five or to imprisonment for a period not exceeding six months or to both”.
